After a productive day at work, Amahle arrived at her family's traditional Zulu home, her heart racing with anticipation. uMa, greeted her with a warm smile, but dad's eyes held a serious glint.
Dad: "Amahle, ngane yami sekuyisikhathi sokuthi ugane manje. Umndeni wakwaZulu ukhethe uBandile Zulu njengomyeni wakho."

Amahle:"Kodwa baba, I'm a modern successful woman,ngine career mina, a life of my own."
uMa's expression remained firm, yet loving. "Isiko lethu leli"
